Phoenix Lake, Dibley / Shaver Grade Rd Trail Junction

Highlight • Lake

Phoenix Lake is open to the public for swimming and fishing. Dogs are allowed on the surrounding trails, but are not allowed to swim nor drink from the water.

Tip by

7.20 km

In 1967, the family of Natalie Coffin Greene donated 25 acres of Phoenix Lake land for a park in her memory. It is a very private, secluded and peaceful spot to set out on a day hike. The park also makes a great destination in and of itself. It has picnic tables, Ross Creek running through it, and restrooms. Dogs are allowed as long as they are on a leash. The tiny parking lot is usually full on summer weekends, so arriving early in the day is best.
